I don't know what God believes. I know what others tells me He believes; and I know what I think He believes. There are some large variations between the two.
There are people who are worthy of hell; some may be atheists but some may be professing christians. Only God can see directly into their hearts. Only God can perhaps understand WHY someone can't believe or WHY someone would hate God. I've known homosexuals who were much better people than heterosexual christians. I know what the bible says about homosexuals, but was that really the intended meaning? Again, why? Was it the result of something way beyond their ability to resist? Why do infants die young? Why am I good looking but not rich? Simply put, I don't know. My path parallels that of the fundamentalists, but does not go step-for-step with them. I even like Harry Potter movies, but I had a pastor who told me once they were the fruit of satan. How could I trust him with any further spiritual truths?
I believe that God is interested in the way in which you handle the challenges of life. That shows your character. I also believe God is interested in the things you do that no one else sees. That shows the content of your heart. Most everything else, you do for other people's consumption. If you announce you're giving a thousand bucks to charity, you're doing it so people will be impressed with your generosity. If you slip it into the poor box in cash anonymously, then maybe. It still depends on whether or not you're trying to impress God. In some cases, you don't even know yourself, but God sees into your heart.
Maybe the path toward being Godly is peeling away the hate, deceit, and character flaws away from the places where perhaps only you can see them. Continuous self-evaluation. Am I the best I can be? Am I making progress toward some ideal? Perhaps your ideal is being more Christ-like; it's not up to me to say. As long as you're not standing still or looking backwards, you're making progress. If you're there telling yourself and all around you how wonderful you are, you're not making forward progress. A quiet, purposeful striving for bettering yourself, at least in my opinion, is a necessary element in your personal, independent pursuit of God. I firmly believe that the content of your heart, where only God can see, is much more important than walking an aisle and uttering an incantation. But that's just me.
